Amla Indian Gooseberry Phyllanthus Emblica Seeds

15+ seeds of the glorious Phyllanthus Emblica.

It’s a real beauty and I got the seed swapping with a customer. Love barter!

Often called Amla or Indian Gooseberry, it’s also know by a heap of other names such as Emblica officinalis, Emblic myrobalan, Alama, Amloki and even Amritphala, which is Sanskrit for “Fruit of heaven” or “Nectar fruit”. It has a great tangy taste eaten fresh, and even cooler, if you drink water after eating a couple, the normal bland water, tastes really sweet?

No idea why, but very cool none the less!

It has a Vitamin C content of 445 mg/100g, (The highest in the world by weight!) and extremely high levels of other Antioxidants and Ellagitannins like Emblicacin A (37%), Emblicanin B (33%), Punigluconin (12%) and Pedunculagin (14%). It also contains Punicafolin, Phyllanemblinin A and HEAPS of other goodies including other Polyphenols, Flavonoids, Kaempferol, Ellagic acid and even Gallic Acid!

I made some awesome relish and pickles from the fruit as well as eating way more than is recommended fresh. Folks say that if you eat a whole heap of them fresh uncooked, you will temporarily lose your voice, just for a couple hours or so. It’s the tannins or something?

Turns out that’s totally true…. (I did eat 20-30 one after another over about 15minutes….)

No noticed or reported effects on the larynx when cooked, and it was just a temporary effect which I have to admit was kinda cool.

Various parts of the plant have been used forever, and are still used today treat a range of diseases, but the most important and powerful part according to Ayurveda is the fruit.
